Goodreads asked Andrea Joan:

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Andrea Joan I use to try several methods of this; meditation, taking a reading break, drinking a huge glass of wine. None of these things seem to work or show any results. Finally I had this idea that I would just start keeping journals of my main characters. If I was feeling blocked I would start journaling as that character. Just random thoughts they may have or what they did that day. I found that started helping my creativity and I was just writing for the hell of it with no end game, so the block wasn't there. Eventually I would feel the ideas to start to come to me again and even ended up using some of these random thoughts in my MS.
